The creative and gregarious hippoids are beefy, 7' tall bipeds that are wholly immune to pain. They are skilled body modification artisans, and each hippoid sports numerous tattoos, piercings, implants, and decorative scars / brands. They're the only race in the Mutant Future that doesn't blanch at the words "recreational dentistry".

Hippoids are psionically attuned to electrical current, and with minimal concentration, they can pinpoint the location any functional artifacts within a 2-mile radius.
